    Design done by Greg. He is VERY talented!!!!
    Alecia G.

    I was having my first tattoo done and I was visiting Kentucky for a week to see my family. Because I was leaving in a few days they made time for me and squeezed me in at the end of the day. My artist was Greg and he did my tattoo better than I could have ever imagined. He even re-drew it a few times so that I would be completely happy with the design. He did such a wonderful job and was very caring when it came to the amount of pain I was in. I don't think I could love my tattoo or this shop any more than I do. They are amazing and Greg is a VERY talented and funny artist. Definitely recommend him.

    Designs by Dana is the top in the city for a reason. They're GOOD at their profession. Their shop is clean, their attitude is professional, they want your tattoo to live up to the name. They are fair priced and won't try and rack up the hours to stretch the bill. Tommy took care of me at the Covington shop, and when I have need of another tattoo, I know where I'm going. Great work guys!

    You get nickel and dimed here for everything and charges aren't explained. Had my ears repierced…read morehere after one had closed. Jewelry that was put in was the type that inserts from the back and has a ball that screws in from the front. After they had healed and I went to change the jewelry one of the earrings had been screwed on so tightly I couldn't remove it. Stopped in to have them unscrew it. 30 seconds total (using a hemostat to clamp the earring to remove) and she charged me another $10. Nobody mentioned this charge at all when I asked if someone could try to unscrew it or when I was called back to have it done. Great way to drum up extra business. Secure the jewelry so tight you have to return and they have to remove it with a hemostat. Then tack on an additional fee. I've had other friends with bad up-charge experiences too. One friend called to see how much it would to have her ears pierced and was told $50 over the phone. She ended up getting double piercings thinking it would be $100 and walked out with a bill over $300! Be sure to ask what the total charges are before you even sit down and get it in writing if you have to use their services. Or better yet, go somewhere else.

    I got my eyebrow pierced by René a few days ago and she was awesome! I was definitely a bit nervous…read morebut she calmed me down by explaining everything she was going to do, and everything was super smooth and quick. Love the placement of the piercing and everything is looking great so far, highly recommend.

    I have gotten three piercings here in the past few years, a helix, orbital conch, and tragus. The…read morepiercer is super friendly and very knowledgeable and trustworthy. He makes sure to give you advice on cleaning and aftercare and answers any and all questions you have. I've never had a problem with any of my piercings, and you really can't beat the price with their Saturday $20 piercing special. The other staff working at the shop have always been so kind. I would recommend :)

    2 for $30 piercings sounds too good to be true, because it is. I had a previous experience here…read moregetting my nose pierced and it was fine, but had a different experience this time. The staff isn't that friendly, are shouting F YOU and MOTHERF*CKER, Suck my *ss! through the store and outside smoking every 10 min. The guy who did the piercing was nice but bitched the whole time about bad reviews he's had (both times I've been here). I asked for forward helix and rook, and he explained I don't have the anatomy for a rook. Ok, settled on cartilage to balance out other ear. I've had 12 piercings, numerous being cartilage and never once have I gotten 18 barbells in them? The ones he put in were way too big. Catching on everything. Thought the fwd helix looked odd, so I went to where I've gotten All of my other piercings to have them change the jewelry and look at the helix. The cartilage location and gauge was great, it just needed a flat back post so it could swell, but not move around that much or risk being caught on something. I had to have the helix taken out because it wasn't going to heal in that spot, with a barbell, and it's not what I wanted.
